Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

Feeling Lu Tianxing’s gaze, Xue Man’s cheeks flushed, and she stamped her foot in displeasure, saying, ”Mom, what are you doing? It’s not like you to do this. It’s his first visit, and you’re asking such questions. You’re not a cop conducting a household registration check. Besides, didn’t you ask this already?”

Hearing her daughter’s remark, Huang Sumei’s smile grew even brighter, ”Okay, okay, mom won’t ask anymore. Sigh, a daughter married is like water poured away, what’s done cannot be undone.”

At these words, Xue Man became even shyer, her head bowed as she fiddled with the hem of her clothes, not daring to speak.

The bashful demeanor of Xue Man allowed Lu Tianxing to feast his eyes and discover another side to Xue Man. No matter how tough a woman was, she inevitably had a feminine side.

The atmosphere in the ward was warm and devoid of any barriers. With Lu Tianxing’s jokes and laughter, there was hardly a moment of silence, but Huang Sumei’s gaze made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles—it was definitely the look of a mother-in-law sizing up her son-in-law, more and more satisfied with what she saw.

”Auntie, it’s getting late, I should head back. Next time I’ll come and keep you company, is that okay?” Lu Tianxing said cautiously to Huang Sumei.

Huang Sumei looked out the window, a flash of regret in her eyes, and nodded, ”Yeah, it is getting late. We’ll have to wait until next time. Xiao Man, what are you still standing there for? Hurry and see Tianxing off. You really have no manners.”

”Auntie, I’ll be going now. I’ll come to see you again when I have time.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Tianxing felt as if he had been granted amnesty. Without paying any more attention and without waiting for Xue Man to speak, he immediately grabbed her hand and couldn’t wait to leave the ward.

Watching her daughter’s hand being held, Huang Sumei’s face revealed a brilliant smile. It might not be long before she could hold her grandson, and her life would then be complete.

After leaving the ward, Lu Tianxing stopped, took a deep breath, and felt a sense of relief throughout his body, with Huang Sumei’s last look giving him a shiver down his spine.

Lu Tianxing was almost certain that if he told Huang Sumei he was going to consummate his marriage with Xue Man tonight, Huang Sumei would probably give it two thumbs up, then in ten months, show off her grandson with pride. Her look was identical to those of Bai Qiao Mountain and He Cailan.

”Lu Tianxing, why the sighs? Are you really that upset about accompanying me to see my mother?” Seeing Lu Tianxing’s wary expression, Xue Man wrenched her hand from his and spoke with dissatisfaction.

Lu Tianxing sighed, ”Of course, it’s distressing. Didn’t you see the way your mom looked at me? I bet if I had said we were consummating our marriage tonight, your mom would have agreed. Tell me, isn’t that distressing? A beautiful woman is right in front of me, yet I can only look and not touch—how frustrating that is.”

”What nonsense are you spouting?”

Xue Man glared at Lu Tianxing, but a smile couldn’t help but form at the corners of her mouth. It seemed her charm still had an allure for this womanizer.

”I’m not spouting nonsense; I’m just telling the truth.”

Lu Tianxing looked at Xue Man, touched his chin vainly, and said, ”Minister Xue, tell me, don’t I just ooze charm? I feel like every mother in the world is my mother-in-law. Ahh, too bad I’m so outstanding, too charming. How can other men live with this? No wonder I can’t bear to look in the mirror every morning. It turns out it’s because I’m too handsome—I’m afraid I’ll fall in love with myself.”

Xue Man watched Lu Tianxing with a speechless expression on her face, his head shaking with sighs, almost wishing she could slap him across the face. His narcissism was truly infuriating—too handsome to look in the mirror? With such bluster, why doesn’t he just fly to the sky?

”You are very handsome, but like that of a cricket.”

Xue Man rolled her eyes at Lu Tianxing and said softly, ”Lu Tianxing, thank you for what you did just now.”

”We’re friends, what’s there to thank? It was nothing. As for such garbage relatives, it’s better off without them. If they dare to bother you and Auntie again, just tell me, and I’ll take care of them,” Lu Tianxing said with a wave of his hand.

”Alright. Lu Tianxing, can you tell me who you really are?” Xue Man asked intently, as if afraid to miss any expression on his face.

”What can I be? Just like you, a mere worker...”
